(Clearwisdom.net) A fellow practitioner reminded us that those who are persecuted by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) should upgrade their understanding from "break out of the evil's den" to "disintegrate the evil." This is a giant leap in the level of righteous thoughts. Whether it be practitioners who are currently suffering persecution, or who have not been persecuted, I hope that we can all send righteous thoughts to disintegrate the CCP and all of its factors, evil spirits, and ghosts, and eliminate the communist entity from this universe.
Teacher said while lecturing on the Fa,
"A Dafa disciple completely opposes everything arranged by the evil old forces." ("Dafa is Indestructible" from Essentials for Further Advancement)
Our righteous thoughts should eliminate all elements of suppression, such as forced labor, imprisonment, brainwashing, and so on, because they fundamentally should not exist. Dafa disciples fundamentally should not be in those places. So in our thoughts there should be no remnants of ideas such as "we can steadfastly validate the Fa in those places," because at a certain level this acknowledges the persecution, opens up a place for the evil to exist, and hampers our efforts to completely negate the old force's arrangements.
Letting go of life and death does not equate with actually dying. In the same way, breaking out of the these places does not mean that someone has to willingly enter them in the first place. In the process of disintegrating them, we should be diligent without letting up, and clear out and eliminate the malevolent factors. As we take steady steps, the upright field will become stronger and stronger, and the environment will take a turn for the better, and help practitioners who are imprisoned to do the three things well. As we persist with sending righteous thoughts, the negative factors will lessen, the energy that maintains the CCP will weaken, and as a result more and more Dafa disciples will be able to break out of those horrible places. The old forces will be powerless to do anything about this situation. All of the results will be magnificent, though each practitioner's path may be different. Solely focussing on a pre-conceived result is not the right way to go about it.
A practitioner reminded me, "If each guard in a prison or labor camp were no longer cruel, wouldn't the evil be eliminated? Who would fear persecution, and who would worry about being arrested while clarifying the truth?" It is my understanding that after almost eleven years of persecution, the unsaveable evil elements have committed monstrous crimes in persecuting Dafa practitioners. They owe all kinds of debts and their primordial spirits have already been destroyed. There only remains some vile, messed-up ghosts that are holding up their skin. When Dafa practitioners have strong righteous thoughts, they will no longer have the negative energy replenishing them, and will wither. They will be unable to commit bad deeds, because that strong energy field will be restraining them.
"The evil furor is gone. It's not that those bad people have changed, though, but that the evil spirit that was controlling them has been decimated." ("Turning the Wheel Towards the Human World")
If we are fooled by false appearances, our heart of zealotry arises, and our righteous thoughts slacken, then we will continue to be interfered with and persecuted. Even if the environment of some places becomes more relaxed, regardless of how relaxed it becomes, it is still persecution. Each and every arrangement of the old forces, all the forms of its persecution--none of these are recognized by Teacher. So I suggest that each practitioner upgrade his or her understanding, changing from "don't fear persecution" and "don't worry about being arrested," to completely eliminating all of the old forces' arrangements. This is fulfilling Dafa practitioners' historic mission.
In the forced labor camp where I was once persecuted, the environment has steadily become better and better owing to Dafa practitioners' continual efforts. Even inmates who were drug addicts dare to yell "Falun Dafa is good, the Communist Party is a cult" right in front of the guards. At least half of the people have listened to the "Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party" and understood the truth about Dafa. Falun Dafa practitioners study the Fa and practice the exercises, and this has become a normal part of the day for many in the camp. Many guards turn a blind eye to it. After I left, out of a squadron of about 90 drug addicts, more than eighty had quit the Communist Party, and this is indeed a good thing. However after I left, in my heart, and while sharing with other practitioners, I often praised and cherished, and even longed for, that environment. I overlooked the hardship and suffering that was quietly taking place in the hearts of those practitioners, behind their projection of great kindness and forbearance. Whenever a practitioner left, during their brief farewell, that solemn heshi, that look in their eye of firm and unwavering determination, it carried so much longing towards the practitioners outside.
Practitioners, let us take steady steps with righteous thoughts, transcend time and space, quickly disintegrate the Communist Party, and finish this nightmare that never should have taken place.
